The Meeting is a forum for researchers to meet and exchange knowledge and expertise. It is also a platform of interaction and networking among the participants, promoting collaborations between different institutions.
Promoting cross-pollination of ideas by connecting researchers from different backgrounds is the fundamental reason of the “First Italian-Lebanese Science Day”. It exemplifies the diversity of our scope.

In addition, the meeting encourages addressing national and international issues, such as the transfer and assessment of new technologies, the inter-universities cooperation, the university-industry cooperation, as well as education and research experiences related to innovative technologies in relation to Medical, Health and Biological sciences.
